Her name was Aunt June - June Radcliff, she took care of me and my little sister for awhile. She later went on to cook at a Bible College up by Victory Bible Camp - I think It was Victory Bible College.

My mother was at the El Nathan Children's Home, possibly the Lazy Mountain Children's home after the El Nathan burned down. She was Freda Chernoff, with twin Sue Chernoff, Brothers Willie and George. She was there in the 40's and lived in foster homes before that. She was born in 1927. She tried to find out about surviving relatives and what happened to her family, but this was before the internet and she lived in the lower 48. She passed away 1992. Just happened across this site. It's a shot in the dark, but do you remember a Freda there?
